Last week, out of nowhere, Antonio Brown shared some private DMs from his former quarterback and NFL Legend Tom Brady. In the leaked messages, TB12 could be seen reminding Brown not to miss his psychologist appointments.
Brady said, “Love how you are working, please don’t miss your psychologist appointments. PHYSICAL – you have mastered and it is easy for you to work hard. MENTAL – you are very smart and you know the game. EMOTIONAL – we all need to work on this. We are all emotional beings. You need to work equally as hard here!” This raised many eyebrows, including that of the former WR, who shared the messages with a caption – “Please don’t miss Psychologist appointments…. WTF.” Well, like Brown, we were all puzzled about why Brady had such suggestions for him. But finally….we have the answer now.
This week, Tom Brady appeared in an episode of the IMPAULSIVE podcast. During the show, he revealed why he suggested Antonio Brown to check with a psychologist. He said, “I mean, I wanted the best for him. I think I saw a spark in him that I thought if it was put in the right place, how incredible it could be for not just the team he was on, but for his life and what he could accomplish.”

Recalling New England days, Brady said, “We picked him up at the Patriots and he played one game and we released him Friday afternoon. And then there was just a lot of things that were happening in his life that he needed to focus on. And the team decided, the Patriots, said no, ‘we’re not dealing with this.’ League had some issues, and then we ended up going to Tampa. Then he came back after a suspension in Tampa, and I just thought okay if I can help him like I’d love to help him, because he’d help our team it help his life and then, you know, I just again I always root for the best.”
So, yeah, there might be tensions between the two, especially because of Gisele Bündchen. After all, Brown had an alleged dirty take on Brady’s ex-wife, accusing her of cheating. But TB12 is still thinking best for his ex-receiver.
